Provision of Backup Disk Storage, Media Agent Servers & Disk Library

Description

Fingal County Council’s IT Department is undertaking a project to enhance server backup and recovery performance which will provide improved RTO’s / RPO’s and SLA’s to user departments. The current backup SLA’s RPO’s range between 1hour – 24hours. The upgrade will involve moving from file level backups to VMDK backups and utilizing Commvault’s deduplication and compression techniques to reduce both the backup window and the storage footprint. The Council intends to leverage an investment in its Nexus 7K core network switching and Solid State Stretched VSAN clusters to deliver a near ZERO DR solution. Fingal County Council is seeking a qualified vendor to provide high performance Media- Agent Server/Compute hardware with directly attached (12Gb/s SAS HBA) disk storage. The Council have an initial requirement for of 500TB of useable disk storage (RAID 6). The storage solution should be scalable to a minimum of 1 Petabyte. A Tape Library (LT08) is required for data archiving. The hardware must support current versions of Commvault Complete Backup and Recovery for Virtualised environments and Commvault Complete Backup and Recovery for Physical Servers.
